Naming he Baby.
Smudge had ransacked various books
fora nnmo, and,. as the sixth of, the la
test edition of Smudge was Indicative ot
toll in the ranks of men, as tho Infant
looked strong almost .warliko a great
name was the quoit ot .its distracted
parents. Mrs. S. wanted It named after
some o,d Bible character. Smudge sug
gested Sampson Goliah, which would
typify strength; Mrs. S. leaned to Moses
Samuel, emblematical of weakness.
Smudge had declared that ho would
.czposo tho child to the mcasels before It
should be nicknamed Moso or Sam.
Then he hinted at Jonah j but Mrs, S.
would listen to, no such monogram. She
didn't want her last child's name con
nected with a pah story! Already they
fiad named a child Hainan, and she was
sure that he would be hanged homo day.
Seeing that 110 Scriptural na'mo could bo
agreed upon, she- suggested Omega, re
minding Smudgo that they bad named
their first born Alpha.
'You don't call this one Omega,' said
Smudgo, 'y.W put tue,name away, and;
when we want It I'll et younow,. ,How
would Martin Luther do?'
'I'm a Baptist, I am, Smudge!' retor
ted Mrs. S., coloring. 'I don't want
any Luther names In this houso. For
your mother's .sake, I allowed ono of
my children to be' called Jonathan Wes
ley. Sho don't poko 'any Methodist
names on, to rae again. If Luther had
been a Baptist, tlie'name might do.
There's Roger Williams. Roger Wil
liams Smudge would sound well. He
.could wrlto.lt E. Williams Smudgo, you
see.
'But he never will!; cried, tho parent,
with determination., R. Williams was a
Baptist, and you know, Mrs. Smndgo',
that I don't lean that way. I'd sooner
call him Tom Paine.'
'Call him Tom Paine, and 111 kill
him before he's weaned.'
'You like Puritans, Mrs. Smudge,
Call him Miles Standlsh.'
'No, sir!' I don!t want my child to
grow up with any such an outlandish
name. You called our second boy Ply
mouth itocK bniudge, and that namo
will kill him before he votes. No more
Puritan names.'
'You'r, the confoundest particular
woman I ever .saw,' retorted Smudge.
'If It had been a girl, we would have
railed her .Cleopatra Octavo.'
'No we wouldn't! Our fourth girl
now groans under the name of Olympla
Tarpeia. It will make, her bo .an old
maid. Let's compromise, Smudge.
You like a strong name Goliah, for
Instance I, a Baptist ono. Let's coll
the baby Roger W., Goliah Smudge.'
'Put tho Blblo name first.'
!I won't do It!'
'Then we'll call him something else.
'My father's name was Joshua bid-
eon,' meekly suggested Mrs. S.
'What do I care It it was? None of
my children shall bo called after your
relatives. That's cettledl Let us fall
back on a lato name Garibaldi, for In
stance.'
'Or Bonaparto.'
'Which one?'
Napoleon tho Third.
'No; I won't have him called. Napo
leon.
'Then you shan't call him Garibaldi,
retorted Mrs. S., as 'firmly. 'Smudge,
you'r the thickets Individual I ever liv
ed with. You won't listen to anything,
I'm reasonable willing to listen to any
thing you. propose.'
'Then call,the boy Daniel Webster,
,1 always admired, tho old statesman.'
'Our family shan't, ho disgraced by a
Whig name.'
said Mrs, Smudge. 'Lafayetto Is
great, a good, name.,'
Smudgo thought! hs was on the eve
ot suggesting the name, of the great
Frenchman himself.
'He must have a middle name.'
'.Lafayetto Wlll.Iamsl' said Mrs. S.
'Tuero'p your old Baptist name again!
I tell you Roger Williams shan't, la any
form, hang to that boy's coat-tail.'
'Then you shan't call him Lafayette.'
And thus the quarrelling over the
christening continued for six mortal
hours. Finally, the affair was settled
Smudge's twelfth baby is to face tba
world with, the simple cognomen ot
John Smudgo.

vorco was granted on that ground. Ho
added that Yretskl ought to be punish
ed for his hasto tn marrying, but that
four years ot such life had been suQlcl
ant punishment.
